Why are the animal's choices never considered in this equation? Freedom is something the west places a high value on, but it's generally agreed that freedom should never go so far as to harm others, yet your "freedom" to choose what to eat is resulting in a horrifying sort of perpetual holocaust.

Why is your fleeting sensory pleasure (something that can be had just as easily from plants) more important than the entire lives and wellbeing of all the animals you paid to have killed?

Being militant won't convince anyone for a cause. Being open to them asking questions will. Offer people to try things. Be a good friend. You will be far more successful. I say this from experience.

And if you have some recipes you swear by, feel free to PM them. I like cooking and trying new things.

Sapience vs sentience. Hope that helps your understanding!

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
